Show answer and explanation
✓ 500 000
500,000 signatures of citizens are needed to present a bill by popular initiative. The signatures must be from people with the right to vote and they must be checked. It is a mechanism of direct democracy that allows citizens to propose rules to Parliament without depending on the parties. Be careful with the other numbers: 100,000 is not enough and one million is not required.
